Where Can You Find Me via Writing?

Hola everyone, hope you all are having a fantastic Saturday/Weekend!

First off, if you haven’t noticed or if you’re new to my blog, I was on hiatus throughout the month of April, but I am now officially back. 

I had a really great hiatus. Definitely developed a lot of healthy habits, and I'm still learning to practice them to this day. I even got to watch the Super Mario movie, and I absolutely loved it!

Now that's out of the way, as the title says, I wanted to list down where you all can find me when it comes to my writing.

I know I have posted down where you can find me write, but I wanted to do it a second time for two reasons:

1. Just in case I gained a new follower or two

2. So people can know that where my writing is and where I write exclusively.

So with that said, let’s get started!

First off is my AO3: PrincessGem

This is where I usually post and write Miraculous themed fanfics. However, I plan to expand it to other fandoms such as Total Drama or Monster High. In fact, three of my famous stories from dA and Fanfiction are on there. Them being A Princess and A Rebel Queen, Debanimated High, and Scarespray on there.

Speaking of which, the new two websites where you can find me writing are indeed my DA: Muggle-Gem-Princess and Fanfiction: Gem the Princess

Now for my dA, luckily I do have a folder dedicated to all of my fanfics for easily access, so where you can all read them without looking for them in my gallery. 

And last, but not least: My Wattpad: LovePrincessGem. 

Unlike the other three, this one is exclusively for original writing only. This is where I will be writing and posting my original content I plan to make and hopefully publish one day. From my own plays to my own books to even my own original series! It's also where you get to meet my very own OCs that I had previously posted on my art blog, and hopefully will one day become real characters as time goes by!

I'm still in progress of making the stories I have originally posted before, so more new chapters on those will be updated as soon as possible!

Have a great rest of the weekend everyone!

Please take care!

This one is for all the sad girlies

So @anileahvictoria was asked to be part of a reading for a brand new unpublished play. It's a ghost story set in the Tower of London during the Elizabethan error, a tale of treason and betrayal.

I got to see it live, and I was floored by the story and acting. Anileah is the ghost.

From the Bottom of My Asylum Heart Act I Preview

Hi everyone, so this a preview to one of my upcoming original plays: From the Bottom of My Asylum Heart. This play is about a young girl, living in the Victorian Era, whom after believing she is the cause of her mother's death, believes that she is mentally ill and thus, checks herself into an asylum, hence the title.

Before I post the preview for Act I, I do want to apologize if anything I say is historically inaccurate. I'd been writing this play since I was in high school, so please feel free to leave feedback. <3

Anyways, here's the preview. Please enjoy!

____________

Act I, Scene I

(Scene I. In a mansion during the times of Victorian England. It is raining, thundering, and lightning at five o'clock in the morning.  in the morning. Inside, JAMES SEBASTIAN,the ruler of the mansion is in the living room sitting on a chair as he is reading from a journal that has the name, EMILY SEBASTIAN written on it. In fact, the journal's whole title is called "EMILY SEBASTIAN'S TALES.")

James Sebastian: (reading from the journal) On this day, March 27, 1808, my beloved Madeline Sebastian has been born. My one and only daughter, my one child, my dearest child. I shall forever love you (brief pause) until the day I die. 

(James then closes the journal and signs deeply as he sets the journal down on the nightstand.) 

James: If only that day was later on instead of sooner. 

(Enter CHRISTOPHER KAINE, the mansion's butler.)

Christopher Kaine: Today is the day, isn't it sir?

James: Tomorrow, Christopher. Tomorrow. 

Christopher: (pours tea into James's cup) Today, tomorrow, next year, you are going to have to tell her either way, sir.

James: (picks up his tea and sips it softly) I am aware, Christopher. The only problem is how do I explain to my own daughter, who is only eleven turning twelve in just a few more hours from now, that twelve years ago after her mother died due to a horrific disease and she left her nothing but a journal behind? (slams down his fist on the chair's arm) It just frustrates me!

Christopher: (puts down his teapot) Relax, sir. I know it is frustrating to explain to Madeline what happened to Emily; but we must do something about it or it will be too late.

James: (seething) You don't need to remind me, Christopher!(sighs) Just put yourself in my shoes for a minute and try to analyze how I feel about this conflict right now. (rises up from his seat and pushes Christopher towards it) Here, sit in my seat and tell me how does it feel?

Christopher: Sir, sitting in your seat will not do anything for me about this problem. 

James: That's right, because you don't understand, Christopher!(pinches the bridge of his nose) Excuse my temper, but you just don't understand, now do you? 

Christopher: Of course I do. Twelve years ago, you lost your wife.

James: And twelve years ago, Maddie lost her mother and she believes it's her own fault!

Christopher: (surprised) James sir! You mean she is...

James: (sighs deeply) Yes, Christopher. As much as I want to lie or even forget about it, Madeline still believes it's her fault that Emily is dead; even after all of these years. She still won't let it go, no matter how much I, Lewis and David, her doctor try to help her. Nothing works anymore. But despite all this, I believe there is still hope for not only us, but for her as well.

Christopher: (concerned) Sir, are you sure about this?

James: (snaps at him quickly) Of course, I'm sure about this! I'm her father after all! (speaks calmly again as he begins to pace back and forth) Of course, her next appointment with Dr. Lee will be here until her party starts of course. 

Christopher: And this means what exactly, sir? 

James: Christopher, my dear man. Don't you know? Dr. Lee always knows the answer to all of our problems, no matter what. (grins brightly) In fact, he already understands Maddie more than any of us have throughout these years. 

Christopher: (confused) But sir, how will this work out?

James: (walks over to Christopher and puts his hand on his shoulder) My dear Christopher, Dr. Lee is a specialist in the mentally insane.

Christopher: (offended) Sir, how dare you say that about Young Maddie!

James:  (quiets him down as he grits his teeth) I don't mean like that! (takes a deep breath) What I mean is, think about it: It has been twelve years since Emily's tragic passing, and in those twelve years, Madeline hasn't moved on. Even if she doesn't show it, I know deep down what she is suffering from.

Christopher: (gasps) Sir, you don't mean...

James:(nods his head) As much as I hate to explain it, Maddie, my own daughter might be mentally ill with a horrendous disease called melancholia.

Christopher: (trembling) James sir, there's no way you can...

James: What, tell her? Of course I won't. (pause) Not just yet.

Christopher: Not yet!

James: I'm her father, I can't just hide the truth from her!

Christopher: But she'll be horrified to learn that term! Especially from her own father! 

James: Be that as it may, somebody has to help us. Somebody has to help us realize that Maddie may be insane, might be upset, most likely is suffering from melancholy. I pray to God that Dr. Lee will help us understand more of this disease, and that my beloved daughter will not be alone on this journey if he will diagnose her with it. I'm very sure that she will be informed, "Maddie, you have melancholia. It's where you suffer from external sadness. Due to the twelve-year anniversary of your mother's death coming up, you most likely have this disease; this illness, this thing that makes you upset even when you don't want to be. It's not your fault, but with the help of your family and I, we can help you make it through."

Christopher: Sir, this feels like a difficult challenge.

James: Difficult, what's diffcult is that my daughter is turning twelve in less than three hours, and I'm in a crisis not knowing when or how to tell her she is most likely insane; suffering from the worst possible thing ever. And you, Christopher, are making it harder for me to think what to do about it!

(A knock on the mansion's door is heard, followed by a voice.)

Voice: James, Christopher, somebody.

James: (astonished) By George, it's Lewis and David! Let them in, Christopher, let them in at once!

Christopher: Yes sir, on it sir.

Early visual development for Wish (2023) by Griselda Sastrawinata-Lemay and Brittney Lee.

An earlier version of the film saw Star take on a human form as a magical, glowing character inspired by Peter Pan. Ultimately, the creative team reconceptualized Star as an ethereal, playful entity resembling Mickey Mouse. "Now Star and Asha have an emotional journey. They are soulmates." -Allison Moore.
